Logic delays of resistor coupled Josephson logic (RCJL) have been investigated. An experimental circuit with a cascade chain of ten RCJL OR gates was fabricated using Pb-alloy Josephson IC technology with 5-..mu..m minimum linewidth. Logic delay was measured to be as low as 10.8 ps with power dissipation of 11.7 ..mu..W. This demonstrates a switching operation faster than those reported for other Josephson gate designs. Comparison with computer-simulation results is also presented.
